Description

Welcome to this charming 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom home in desirable Brookbend! This property boasts fantastic curb appeal with maintenance-free vinyl siding and brick accents, plus a convenient double driveway offering off-street parking for at least four cars. A thoughtful concrete safety ramp leads from the driveway to the front door. Step inside to the main entry, which opens into a bright living room featuring a cathedral ceiling, coat closet, and an open staircase. Natural light floods in through a large picture window flanked by two double-hung windows, perfect for fresh air. To the left, the kitchen offers ample light and a side exit to a spacious 28x16 deck, ideal for fall BBQs or simply relaxing while overlooking the backyard. Downstairs, discover a versatile space currently configured as two additional bedrooms, though it can easily be converted back into a family room. This level also features a cozy gas fireplace with a brick accent wall, a half-wall perfect for decor, and convenient access to storage and the utility/laundry room. Upstairs, you'll find three generously sized bedrooms, each with ample closet space and abundant natural light. A linen closet in the hallway completes the second floor. The backyard is a true highlight, offering plenty of room to spread out and relax. It includes a large shed for extra storage and mature trees and bushes for privacy. While this home is sold as-is and needs a touch of TLC to truly shine, its potential is undeniable. PROFESSIONAL PICTURES COMING.

Climate and Weather

The Temperature chart displays average high and low values for January and July, and is designed to provide an indication of both seasonal and daily temperature variability. The Weather Risk Index indicates the calculated risk of each type of weather event occurring in the future. This risk is based on historical localized storm events and weather patterns. The national average for each type of weather event equals a score of 100, so a score of 200 would represent twice the risk as the national average, and a score of 50 would represent half the risk of the national average.
